Fantastic views await the patient traveller who ventures up the steep slopes to visit Hacienda Las Animals. The hosts, Ted and Brisha are welcoming and kind and clearly love what they do - making people feel at home in their home. The sound of doves cooing sooth the soul as the eyes feast on the horizon from the edge of... More

It was our first time flying in to Puerta Vallarta, and we only had a little time there before taking the water taxi for a stay in Yelapa. The hosts of Hacienda Las Animas made this short leg of our trip so easy--Ted picked us up at the airport (he patiently waited well into the evening while we made it... More

This place is wonderful! The house is beautiful and well kept, you are just far enough away from town to not feel like just another tourist, but close enough to walk (about 20 mins) and then get a taxi back after all your adventures. We cannot say enough good things about Ted and Brischa, these people have found their calling... More

The house is beautiful and knowing that Brischa designed it herself makes it even more spectacular. The rooms are large and comfortable and the common areas make you feel like... More

We just spent 2 days at Hacienda Las Animas. Ted picked us up at the airport which is a great perk, especially after our flight had some delays. And the pickup was free- a very good price. As other guests have said, Ted and Brischa make you feel at home. The view form our room and from the pool is... More

We have stayed all over Vallarta and the customer service has always been a little lacking, until we found Hacienda las animas. From the moment we arrived, Ted and Brischa made us feel like we were welcome friends. No detail was overlooked for our stay, and we enjoyed every minute of our visit. I felt so comfortable there, (and safe)... More
